The only stock that I am currently eyeing, buying in cautious bits

Whyyyyy? You enjoy the pain too much. There are "cheap" banks that could give you better returns.
Even foreign buyers would want a bank with less drama and there are plenty of Tier 2 and Tier 3 banks up for sale.

Hehe. Time and tide respect no man. You cant stop the rain. Watch and learn


sidian was bought at 4.3b for 83% which values sidian @5b.
The valuation was arrived at using “a price-to-book multiple of 1.1x based on the audited 31 March 2022 shareholders’ equity of Sidian,” Access Bank said in a regulatory filing by its parent company on Wednesday seen by PREMIUM TIMES.
Total assets around 43b. How does that compare with housing finance which is bigger than sidian. I understand there
are some banks conducting due diligence what should we expect if the same valuation metric is applied.
There are only two emotions in the stock market, fear and hope. The problem is, you hope when you should fear and fear when you should hope

Sidian makes a higher profit than Housing Finance.
Sidian was in compliance with all statutory ratios while HFCK is in breach

Even if the BS is larger the reality is that the NET ASSETS is what matters. Add to that the QUALITY of the assets. Buyers will not pay full price for loans that are in default.

HF probably comes with a lot of baggage and needs a lot of fresh capital to buttress the coming NPLs and Provisions as the economy keeps hurting. Good luck!

Once I commit to a course, I don't stop. Thanks for the attempt to dissuade.. I know fair value is KES 12, but will consider jumping out at any price above KES 7, which will print before end of this year ceteris paribus. Bookmark this
